Geek Weekends

It’s a geek saturday night here, as I play with the new $149 DVD-burner I purchased this afternoon.

I would have been much further along with installation, but I ended up having to return it to Best Buy as it wouldn’t power up, and had obviously been bought previously, opened up and returned then put back on the shelf without even so much as an “open-box” sticker.

The store manager called me a liar for stating that they either have an incompetant return and exchanges staff, or there’s been some internal theft going on. Ah well.
